Combination antiretroviral therapy can stabilize
HIV disease progression and extend the lives of
people living with HIV, but strict treatment
adherence is required to attain maximal therapeutic
outcomes.
The purpose of this book was to improve
understanding about factors that may influence
adherence to antiretroviral treatment in HIV-
positive, urban adults and to describe some of the
barriers they face in adhering to antiretroviral
therapies. Understanding these factors can help in
planning educational programs that target barriers
and improve adherence to antiretroviral medication
regimens.
Several implications for practice and research
were suggested from the findings. Inner-city clinics
are busy, lack funding, and are overbooked.
Physicians working in inner-city clinics might need
help with supporting patients adherence. This
research supports the need for health educators or
others to work in tandem with physicians to improve
patient-clinician relationships and increase
adherence to medication.
